Adults ac loo linil, too cagey and
loo involved in ihr I'xisttnu systems
in carry out reforms Most of us
hail rather worry along with what
we have than strive to change
things Hut young people are quick
lo resent flaws in things and cagci
to elianue them.
Hut seldom an llicv nhli to carry
through any suhstantial improve-
incnts Many o| iheir eflmls flare

bum out.
It is happening again now Against
tin street marches and campus
controntHtions a backlash of public

early Mipimrl is falling away Why ?
For one thing, a youth revolt
Croup is seldom as large as it
seems, foi so many il its members
are there just for the ride Ii is
good fun It is exciting Something
intere.-.tiny may happen, so lets go
alone and see Besides, we like
to provoke .iivl slmck the
older [H'opli Hul as to the issues
ol the revolt, we couldn't care lcs>
Among the students who are in
college mainly to net an education,
most do not have the urge or the
time to l ' in a reform. They are
getting ready to win good places
In thincs .is they are lliey see the
flaws in the system, hut feel able
to accomodate to Ihem
'Hits leaves most ol the leadership
and Ulipporl ol the revolt lo the
students al the Imltom of the social,
economic and academic heaps. So
the revolt eels violent, or eels

A lone lime ago an observer in
